Zitat von Boleck im Beitrag #180its not working...everything is loaded and working until "Setup is starting Windows", after that it hangs there

That has nothing to do with a missing SATA driver.Unplug all unneeded storage drives (HDDs/SSDs, USB flash drives etc) and try it once more.What about your RAM? If you should have more than 3 GB RAM, remove 1 or 2 sticks. Maybe the XP 32bit Setup cannot read, which was written into the RAM >3 GB.

i`ve done that, i have 2 gb ram, i even removed one, still the same(i`ve tested them with ramtest, they are okey), i read somewhere that i need that sata driver, i dont think the driver is incorporated in win xp sp2 or sp3, on the desktop i have same windows (sp sp3) and i looked at the ide drivers that are there and the one for this model (Intel(R) 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C4) dont apear there...i`ve found in a driver pack from google the .inf and .cat for my model but dont have that .oem file or something else, only this files

Believe me, it is part of Windows XP and available during the Setup procedure.A special SATA driver is only needed, if the on-board SATA Controller has been set to "AHCI" or "RAID" mode. If the required SATA driver is missing, the XP Setup is not able to find the HDD/SSD, where it should be installed.

Zitaton the desktop i have same windows (sp sp3) and i looked at the ide drivers that are there and the one for this model (Intel(R) 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C4) dont apear there...i`ve found in a driver pack from google the .inf and .cat for my model but dont have that .oem file or something else, only this files

What you are talking about is not a driver, but just an Intel information file named "ich78ide.inf", which ia part of the Intel Chipset Device Software and does nothing else than to give the "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller" of your ICH7M system the name "Intel(R) ICH7-M Family Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C4". It is not needed at all during the XP installation.Question:How do you try to get XP installed (by booting off a CD/DVD or by booting off an USB flash drive)?

both usb and cd/dvd and a lot of other versions than my original cd....x64 x86, sp1 sp2 sp3, this is happening since 2 months, windows 7 is installing okey but win xp impossible.I even changed my HDD first time because i thought it is broken, and same thing with a new hdd

Where do you want to install Windows XP (onto an empty and freshly formatted HDD/SSD or onto a partition of a HDD/SSD, where your currently used OS is installed)?If it is the latter, which partition table is your boot sector using (MBR or GPT)?

Hmm since i have installed win7 now i cant pass the "Setup is starting windows" part so i can format all my HDD...but i tried with another HDD that i plugged into my PC and formated it and i put it in my laptop and same thing

Maybe the manufacturer of your notebook has blocked the installation of any other OS than Windows 7.

OMFG i find a way, now is installing, when its saying to press F6 you press F5, move the arrow up and select "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC", after that all is going okey...Thanks anyway for support and convinced me that i dont need that sata drivers

Zitat von kachman im Beitrag #189I created the disc with (chose intel series 8 c220, both drivers). the setup of xp pro sp3 retail starts but I get a BSOD right after it loades all the black text on the blue screen.

I suspect, that you have highlighted the wrong Intel SATA Controllers while trying to integrate the textmode driver.Only Desktop systems have an 8 Series/C220 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller, but your Dell 15R 5537 seems to be a Mobile system (laptop/notebook).Furthermore you should not highlight several Intel SATA Controllers,but just the correct one. If you should be able to boot into any Windows OS of the notebook, please check the HardwareIDs of the on-board Intel SATA AHCI Controller (open the "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers" section of the Device Manager > right click onto the listed SATA AHCI Controller > "Properties" > "Details" > "Property" > "HardwareIDs").

Thanks for the screenshot, which verifies, that the Intel SATA Controller of your notebook is running in AHCI mode and has the DeviceID DEV_9C03.Consequence:You should create a new XP CD with integrated Intel textmode driver from scratch (delete the old CD content, which you have previously used as source and re-copy the content of the original XP CD into the processing folder).Then run nLite, don't let it load any setting from your previous work and integrate the "Universal 32bit Intel RST AHCI & RAID driver v11.2.0.1006 mod by Fernando" as textmode driver.When you get the textmode driver popup window, just highlight the following Controller: "Intel(R) 8 Series Chipset Family Mobile SATA AHCI Controller DEV_9C03 (added by Fernando)".The rest is the same as before (let nLite create an ISO file and burn it or let nLite do it as well).This way you should succeed with the XP installation.

Zitat von kachman im Beitrag #193hey, i still have the same probelm. I nlited the mobile series 8 for 9c. but still that issue.

This BSOD has nothing to do with the integrated Intel textmode driver. Look >here<.Intels 8-/9-Series Chipset systems are not designed by Intel for the installation of an absolutely outdated OS like Windows XP - and vice versa Windows XP has not been designed by Microsoft for being used with Intel 8-/9-Series chipsets.Additional question:How did you try to get Windows XP installed (via CD or USB)?

twice by CD once by usb, same outcome. Whats the purpose of your drivers then? (since you said the intel 8 chipsets arent made to work with xp, i know this laptop is technically not meant to work with xp, but my question is on your drivers)
